Transfer a Microsoft Publisher document to Microsoft Word....?

Question

Does anyone know how to transfer a newsletter that I made in Microsoft Publisher over to Microsoft word, while still maintaining the original layout?

Ok, i just read through your responses..but i really don't have any idea what to do. One person said to do "save as"...if this works, then i'll do it, but i don't know where to save it at...could someone please say this is what you do......and i'll try to do it... better yet, if someone has Publisher and Word and i could email them my document and then they could help me transfer it that'd be awesome!

Answer 1

I assume you tried 'Save as' and some formatting was lost. That is really all you can do.

Consider converting it to a PDF instead.... unless you are trying to have someone else edit it.

Answer 2

Not going to happen and still stay editable.

Publisher is not a great program to do anything with to begin, and for some odd reason even though its all sold as a package, 50% of Office does not work well with each other.

Your publisher newsletter can only be brought into word as an image. You probably would have been better off getting a word newsletter template from the office site.

Answer 3

You don't have an objective, ie you are not telling the hiring personnel what position you are applying for. You also have to say more with less words. You need to use Professional terms. It sounds like you might be attempting to apply for an office position. Therefore you should be using the professional terms used by office personnels to describe the activities that you have done the office. If you don't then you sound unprofessional and possible incompetent. Many of the things that you placed on you resume like "Listen carefully and accurately, speak articulately and persuasively, write clearly and precisely" belong on your cover letter. WE ARE IN A RECESSION so that means human resources has to be able to read your resume in 15 to 20 seconds. There are too many people without jobs, too many resumes out there for a hiring personnel to spend more time on your resume. If it is unprofessional and or too wordy then it goes into the garbage no matter what your skills are.

Answer 4

You can drag and drop most items, however keeping the layout will be difficult because word is made for word processing and not layout design.

Answer 5

Just tried it. Published would not convert the border, only the text.

Did you know Microsoft has many free downloadable templates for just about anything.
